Please Go Away: An open letter to "Abolish Human Abortion"

"But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned."Titus 3:9-11

First things first, a single Facebook post doesn't prove heresy. Without having spoken to her about this post, it seems pretty clear that she's describing the Lord's Supper, not her specific moment of salvation. Catholics and Protestants can disagree with how frequently Christians should observe the elements, but it's hardly heresy.

For a group that loves to use civil war imagery, you forget history. During the antebellum period, there was a group called the Underground Railroad who helped take care of the economic needs of fugitive slaves. Do I need to explain this one?!?

The ironic thing is that Abby and I don't get along particularly well. We've been on different sides of numerous political disputes in Texas. Furthermore, that's going to continue. But there are appropriate forums to settle these disputes. Calling someone a heretic on Facebook isn't one of them.

I probably shouldn't feed you trolls, but you're the Westboro Baptist Church of the pro-Life movement; please go away.
